    Snakes are scary

    People from rural-India, mostly Un-Educated have this sense of extreme fear of snakes to which they often fall prey(out of carelessness ofcourse)..Most of them hardly bother to wear footwear while working at the fields(The sad part is, most of them can't afford a decent pair of sneakers)..

    The Pencil has to break, given the fact tht its 2 lysec long and the twist generated @ A will take a resonably long time to reach B...and i don't think the pencil will be flexible enough to twist a full 360 deg. @Chronos,, Does the speed @ which the KE is transferred depend upon the...
